I’ve been spending so much time

All the days were falling behind me

I have wasted so much time
Cm Eb
Holding back jus to stay in line
Cm Gm Ab
I’ve been walking down the ladder
Chorus:
Eb
Remember when you’re young

Remember how much fun

Remember we’re not so damn crazy
Fm Bb
And nothing ever frightened me

I’ve been getting sadder with each step of the ladder
